HR Game Coins (3DS) are a type of special coins that the console generates according to the number of steps that the pedometer of the Nintendo 3DS counts. The fact of using game currencies in some Nintendo video games implies being able to unlock things or obtain objects, as long as the player wants to invest them.
Get Play Coins
To get Play Coins, follow the steps below:
- Put the Nintendo 3DS in standby mode or close the screen.
- Put the console in your pocket and start walking so that the pedometer that includes it counts the steps taken. In fact, it is not necessary since you can also falsify the steps by moving the console, what matters is that the pedometer notices the movement.
- Check regularly at the top of the console's 3D screen to see the number of steps the console has captured. If you faked your steps and made movements too fast, the 3DS may count far fewer steps than it should.
- Take into account the following table of equivalences when looking at the steps:
| With... | ... you get ... |
|---|---|
| 100 steps | 1 game coin |
| 200 steps | 2 game coins |
| 300 steps | 3 game coins |
| 400 steps | 4 game coins |
| 500 steps | 5 game coins |
| 600 steps | 6 game coins |
| 700 steps | 7 game coins |
| 800 steps | 8 game coins |
| 900 steps | 9 game coins |
| 1.000 steps | 10 game coins |
| 1.000+ steps | 10 game coins |
In this way, we deduce that every 100 steps we receive a game coin, but after having made 1.000 steps (that is, having obtained 10 coins) this rule stops and if you do 1.100 steps you will not receive 11 coins, but you will continue with 10 and to get more, you will have to wait the next day for the pedometer to restart the count of the steps.
